"...a number of well-educated women in Beijing were
generally convinced by Dawn's portrayal of their fair
sex. One affluent Chinese said she was uncomfortable being asked to
read Dawn’s book, but after delving through the chapters, was
pleasantly surprised by the accuracy of the author's words."

magazine in China

"Dawn's book answers all the questions for anyone serious about a
lasting relationship with a Chinese woman. How can you find out answers
to questions about culture, etiquette, etc. if you haven't lived there
among the people?" - Allen Van Halle
from England

"I made many of the mistakes that a typical Western male will make on his first voyage looking for someone from China. Wish I had
read this book before I began my search. The stories from author's life
and her work are very insightful and helpful. " - Peter T.
Phelps from USA

The statistics have shown that there are more and more cross-cultural
relationships emerging as the world becomes increasingly international.
"Chinese Women in Love and Marriage" is a production of the new era. It
guides Western men to date Chinese ladies for love and marriage. It
helps Westerners to achieve happy cross-cultural relationships with
Chinese women.

The book is written by a cross-cultural relationship expert with a
unique perspective on relationships between Western men and Chinese
women, built on her own life experience and from 6 years of running the
dating website Asian Promise. Lots of true stories have been used to
demonstrate the author’s views and suggestions in the book.

The book begins by briefly looking at the historical background of
marriage in China to gain perspective on Chinese thoughts and philosophy
of marriage today. It then focuses on Chinese women, their experiences
and expectations of marriage in the past and present and the differences
compared to the rest of Asia and the West. Chapter 3 then gets to the
meat of the questions that Westerners all have. It provides a
comprehensive guide on dating Chinese ladies with a special section on
online dating - a popular method for cross-cultural dating today. The
book covers very practical issues such as how to start your search, what
to write, when to visit, how to avoid being cheated and more sensitive
subjects such as sex and money.

Chapter 4 looks at the universally important subject of communication,
but which is even more important here due to the cultural and
differences. The author highlights many possible areas of conflict and
misunderstanding and explains the cultural background from which these
might arise. The key message is that differences are not necessarily
bad, but that good communication skill is the key to success. The
remaining chapters provide very practical and relevant cultural tips and
advice on how to go about getting married whether in China or in the
West.

The book has given an insight into Chinese women and helps Westerners to
understand Chinese women comprehensively. Until now, what information
can be gleaned about Chinese ladies today is still scarce, shallow and
even biased. Therefore, besides its practical value, "Chinese Women in
Love and Marriage" is also a useful reference book for Chinese study.
